History…
The strike/lockout of 2007 and 2008 made history for Local 410, and indeed for the Capital area community at large, since there has never before been an extended strike of Library workers in Victoria region.
This blog formed a major part of our strategy for communicating to the public, and as such we’ve decided to keep it on line as a sort of historical record. Feel free to browse.
Today, June 2008, we’ve been back to work for two months and things are slowly getting back to normal. Victorians welcomed us back with the busiest May in history!
Local 410 has never felt that there was any essential conflict between it’s members and the goals of the organization. Utimately we both serve the same ideal - providing exellent Library service.
A difficult dispute has been settled, pay equity promised so long ago, has been finally agreed to and will be implemented on a defined schedule. Now it’s time to remember we are on the same team and to work together to provide the best possible Library service to the public.
